This is one of the things I could not get to work out in my head. I like the separation of physical stats from mental statistics. Maybe it is because of real world physics, but I never liked the idea of any other stat controlling physical attacks other than strength or Dexterity. It might make playing a character easier, but I don't think common sense should be sacrificed for ease of rules.

Jack Vance just did a good job explaining his magic system. Any other magic system from the time could easily have worked that way, including folklore. It is not inherently better or worse than any other magic system, but it is the BEST system for any edition of Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder.

I have yet to hear of law enforcement pulling someone over because they look gay. None of what I say is equating a ginger struggle with a gay struggle currently. If a society is intolerant of gingers, the consequences could be as harsh. My wife's grandfather escaped aushwitz and was found later by haircolor according to him. He escaped that place Twice. The second time was for good! :) Homosexuality is the focus of intolerance now, but there were others who were discriminated against for reasons just as stupid.

There is nothing wrong with a GM not allowing a 3pp class. I certainly do not unless I own the book from which the class was printed. If a player in the game store asks if he can play class X from 3pp book Y my answer will always be no unless I have bought the book and I am familiar with the class. Really with archetypes, I do not see the need for more classes in a book. The archetype development was brilliant and a fantastic tweaking of the class substitution levels. Gunslinger and Magus filled a need (but I do not include gunslinger as a playable option in my game), Samurai and Ninja added flavor, and there is very little one can't do with the available archetypes. Options are good, but I feel there is a point where options becomes supersaturated like crystal solution. There is creativity in figuring out a character concept with the options available. Mike Mearls in the escapist article D&D Future writes about how too many options can cause the common language of people who play the game to get distorted. I fully agree with that sentiment. I was worried Paizo was adding to many options. But they have kept the line pretty solid. I find most of their options to be useful, and not just filler. I find too many of their archetypes to be UNDERPOWERED however. Words of Power was a nice addition I would never use, but was a worthwhile part of Ultimate Magic. When WOTC added soul magic I think it was INCARNUM they had a whole book about it. I did not buy that book and know very little about the option. Words of Power took up a nice chapter, I am aware of it, and for instance if I ever wanted to run a SKYRIM campaign it would be very useful. I am glad they did not dedicate a book to it. The Ultimate Guides have provided needed options without causing saturation. It seems Pathfinder has learned from the mistakes of its predecessor.
Gorbacz wrote: Yeah, LotR alone is half bad. It's Silmarillion where lembas hits the fan. silmarillion was published after his death from notes. It is hard to find the characteristics of a novel within the silmarillion. By far my favorite writer is Michael moorcock, with Tolkein coming in second. There is a marked difference in reading writers like moorcock, Lovecraft, tolkein, and china mieville as compared to the forgotten realms and 'game' novelists. The game novelists are perfect for what they do, but they are A- writers compared to the likes of Lieber, mieville, or moorcock.Game novels explore the campaign world. Tolkein, moorcock and others explore culture through their fantasy.

I think the OP is speaking of the default assumption. The Pathfinder core rules seems to be written with Dark Ages to renaissance tech in mind. Everyone I know trims down the available classes for what would fit in their campaigns, but that is because they are working outside the base assumption of the rules. I realize this is not stated but the tech level of core is implied. But Gunslinger is the only class that does not fit in the Dark Ages to Renaissance assumption. If I want to play a Dark Ages Style campaign, I can use all classes Except the gunslinger. I can even make a case for Alchemist. The fact that the gunslinger relies on tech from a narrow period within that scope can be problematic. Generally if you were going to run Dark ages you would have to trim the available equiptment. If you wanted to make only plausible classes than you would have to eliminate Gunslinger because its class abilities rely on one piece of equiptment that would not be available to the Dark Age mileu. This is the only class where one would have to do that. All others use medieval tech and magic.

Wamyen wrote: I have to say that most of my problems with 4th edition are purely from a fluff perspective. I absolutely adored reading Realmslore and Forgotten Realms fiction, R.A. Salvatore, Ed Greenwood and the like; however in the last three years I have seen all of these characters, some with twenty plus years of character building, torn down. These characters were more than written fiction to me, they were friends during difficult times in my life, the people (or Drow) that I got to live vicariously through when I was bored, the reassurance that their really was justice in the world and that everything would turn out for the best if I believed and tried hard enough. Maybe it's crazy for me to hold these characters in such high regard, but they sure as hell deserved better than getting greased because a company decided to try a new marketing focus. All I know is many of my friends on Faerun are now dead to the world of literature, and no true resurrection spell that I or any of my characters ever knew can ever truly bring them back. Just my two copper pieces though. Your really not crazy. There are lots of studies of fictional characters providing the role of supporter to people in troubled times. When MASH ended, there was an influx of people angry at the show ending. They were considered 'friends'. Studies funny enough from what I have read have focused on Soap Operas. I'm with you. I was not happy with 4e, but I was willing to adapt, until they made the new 4e campaign world which resembled the good realms in name only. Intellectual laziness won the Realms debate.
I like the Golarion gods. But I think they are sometimes too broad. That said however I added deities to the pantheon of primary gods. I like Mielikki, so I brought her in with the same portfolio she had in FR. Patron goddess of Rangers, and goddess of Forests and dryads. I play Gozreh as more of the WEATHER and WATER god. I added Sharess and made Calistria the goddess of vengeance. Thor, Odin, and Loki are all gods of the Ulfen (Gee why?). Finally I took natural beasts away from Yeenoghu. Oh right that's Lamashtu. I am not sure if I want to bash Lamashtu back into 'just' demonlord realm, and have another god steal her portfolio. I also kept the standard race gods. Corellon is the god of the elves, Moradin IS Torag, but Torag is worshipped by humans instead of dwarves. Garl Glittergold is there too:)
PC's should not be playing the NPC classes. However I have been thinking of the farmboy turns hero trope in context of the commoner, and led me to an adventure idea. Instead of starting all PC's out at 1st level, I would let them start as say 10th level commoners, and as they gain experience they replace their highest commoner level with an adventurer level. For example Mike the 10th level commoner, achieves 2000 xp. This would normally of course raise his 1st level character to level 2. Instead at 2000 XP he gets his 1st level of Base Class. He chooses fighter and so becomes a level fighter 1/commoner 9. This would continue until all of his levels are replaced through lvl 1-10 (or really 2-11) experience progression, at which time he will advance normally. In the example above, I would let the players pick an NPC class, and they would start at level 10 (with all ability adjustments and normal advancement feats). As they gain in level they would replace the NPC saves and BAB with the new saves and BAB. For example Mike the commoner would recalculate FRW and BAB with Level 1 fighter bonuses; he would replace any gains made at level 10 commoner with level 1 fighter. The BAB of a level 10 commoner is +5. f/r/w = 3/3/3 respectively Upon attaining level one fighter he would now have bonuses of: Fighter 1/Commoner 9: BAB= +5. f/r/w = 5/3/3 respectively. +1 Bonus feat for fighter. It would keep the game around CR 8-10 for quite awhile. Essentially your starting at 10th level but actual level advancement is halted while still giving rewards. Even if the character was a fighter 1/Warrior 9 he would still be more powerful because though his BAB and Save progression does not change he gets fighter bonus feats and powers. I imagine Golarion NPC's with a mix of NPC/Base Class levels to have achieved levels in this way. It would not be like Gestalt. If an expert chose to replace a level with Fighter or wizard he would LOSE skill points. I would give the PC's the choice to start out as any NPC class, maybe offering a bonus feat for taking commoner. Thoughts on this?

If someone is presenting an opinion, it is not necessarily the job of the writer to present it as opinion. There is also responsibility of the reader to understand when something is opinion. Clearly, just about anything involving RPG's is opinion other than statistical probability. People need to get past that. In our current Junk Media of CNN-FOX 24 news cycle, how can one function without being able to distinguish? I actually claim that edition wars start because people get their feathers ruffled over opinion they think is fact. Opinion is stated neutrally all of the time. Politicians do it with climate change, with evolution, with abortion, with EVERYTHING. On lighter topics like RPG's it is practically self evident that what is being touted is opinion. If a politician decides to claim "Climate change is junk science," then it is up to the politician to defend his false claim. If someone asks me why I don't play 4e, and my answer was "It is not real D&D," (I don't just give that answer) the questioner should be able to recognize that as opinion. When someone writes "In my opinion goblins are easy to kill," if your experience is different you may try to sway that opinion. If a person writes "Goblins are easy to kill," and your experience is different, you are going to engage in dialogue to convince the person of the contrary all of the same. The first is STATED as opinion, the writer is holding the readers hand. The second is clearly an opinion still, but the onus is on the reader to recognize it as such. Recognizing bias is the job of the reader.

I originally played this horrible hybrid between AD&D and 3rd edition. Your right it worked terribly, so I knew the rules system well enough I could convert the campaign over rather easily. I felt 4e was too much of a departure for me to do that. I was quite familiar with the rules by the time I made the decision that 4e did not play right for me. I occasionally play the game, but even if 4e was under a different name than D&D I would play it as casually as I do now. To Most members of my group it felt to much like a skirmish game, and we would either stick with 3rd edition or just find another game to play and leave D&D behind. People have different experiences, but I felt 3rd edition though it stressed combat more than previous iterations was much closer to the D&D I knew. FOR ME, 4e did not play the way I was used to playing D&D. 3rd edition even after I shifted from 2nd did. That is the big difference. I was able to make 3rd edition work smoothly even being resistant to the shift. I was unable to make 4e work even while being excited about it. It proved to be very disappointing. I think one thing that mattered is the classes just changed far to much for my liking. Archer pigeon holed to Ranger (with no spells), Rogue now being a scrapper, everyone with powers like the wizard. It was not the D&D I knew, and I could not get it to work. True, I probably approached it from a 3rd edition percepective. That is the way I found fun to play, and for that 4e did not work. For me since it cannot meet the way I play, it failed. Like WHite Wolf failed for me which has many many players, many of whom I gamed with. I felt more like we were having our confrontation tournaments instead of our RPG sessions. I am a very story heavy DM, but I also like the game part, that is why I do not direct plays. 4e system did not allow me to tell the stories I wnated to tell.

They rewrote the realms for all the wrong reasons.

I think there is a proper way to play an RPG. If your the GM you kick them out of the game. Simple as that. I have asked players to leave my game many times. Some of them come back. some of them don't. Either way it is great. I have no problem telling people why they don't work with my group. They have the right to play how they want. They do not have the right to do it in my game. They have the right to find a group that allows their play style.In all honesty, most players I say I will kick out, usually come around to the proper style for the table so they can stay in the group. There are plenty of goofy characters in my game, but they all have a good reason for it.

I love Meta plot, but I love that Golarion is having the story told through AP's. My ultimate Campaign arc is the Fall of the House of Thrune. Crimson Throne's conclusion and my adventures after have made the PC ruler, a member of House Jaggare from Cheliax, King of Korvosa. The PC's also expanded Korvosa to include the holdings. This is Jaggare's first step in overthrowing Thrune. I am working on Carrion Crown now, and I have a Chelaxian PC in it now to add to this meta plot (But I have nto figured out how to work it in yet). Once a few are done, I plan on tailoring a 20+ adventure for my players using their favorite characters from the adventure paths to overthrow House Thrune. I envision this to be each player taking their Chelaxian PC from each adventure path, but one never knows. I love how Paizo manages their novel line to not interfere with the 'world' of Golarion. I can very well imagine if this world was owned by WOTC having a novel causing the WORLD WOUND to explode as was mentioned in a previous post.

I remember when 4e came out and I was defending the art of the books against people that thought the girl on the cover of the PHB was far too skimpy. There are big deals in this world. Like how about we go after the way women are portrayed in FEMALE fashion magazines and the image that sends to young girls and society at large. Paizo has a great record with their art. I like to point the very beautiful SEELAH as an example of tasteful art, and honestly Seoni is not dressed impractically. The only time cheesecake bothers me is when it is a blatant move to sell a product. For example, I think it was Fast Forward that released a Norse supplement. The Cover was a Blond girl, in Bondage leather, wielding two Katana's in a rather sexy pose. I think the picture was GREAT. BUT it annoyed me it was on that supplement. Other than being Blond, there was nothing there to relate her to vikings. Katanas? Black Leather Armor leaving navel exposed? The product might have been great, and normally I would have bought it, but the out of place cover ticked me off. Paizo and Wizards of the Coast on the other hand I think do a very good job of placing Cheesecake pictures in the right place. I just wish PAIZO did MORE of it not LESS :)

There should be nothing stopping you from running pre spell plague realms in 4e however. I was not thrilled with 4e from the beginning. But I think if the developers made the Forgotten Realms more palatable to a number of older fans, ALOT of the migration could have been curtailed. I understand there are people taht like the realms better now. I am not convinced that there is MORE brand loyalty to FR tahn there was before. FR had a BIG following. On top of 4e changing, Realms fans were told: Those things you like about the realms? Most people do not like that so we are changing that on you as well. We are killing the Goddess of Magic because her type of magic will no longer work in the world. Not only that, the GREATEST mercantile power in the realms is going to change its harbour into a slum. Lots of areas are now underwater, and there is this NEW continent that just formed out of no where (I can deal with the adding, I had trouble with the taking away) One cool thing they did was make the lowest level of god (I forgot what it was called... E somthign I think). Oh Exemplar. That was cool! But then they killed all the other gods. I had no problem with the redundant gods. Just study historical mythology, their were MANY redundant gods. Also people that liked the realms liked the historical analogs. It was cool to have the British isles, Egypt, Sumeria, Spain, Arabia and make them fantasy. BUT THEN: The developers say no body likes to play D&D with the real world environments. We must make them all fantastical like the cover of a YES album. Meanwhile people were posting.. Wait we like that, but it was lost over the people that could take or leave the realms saying how much better that would be. the jargon on the internet was: See your old realms was STOOPID. Now you don't have to read volumes of lore to run an adventure. When you never had to before. You started with an area, and went with it. The rest was flavor you could take or leave. Paizo set themselves up perfect. They had the game that prior edition fans think are the true inheritor of the spirit of D&D, and they made Golarion the spirit of the Realms only with low power. With all the same creators, except Ed Greenwood did not conceive it. But he writes for it. When I hear how the FR is still ringing strong, I go to Candlekeep which used to be an old home of mine. People are still posting, but they are no longer creating there like they WERE. That tells me something was lost. I seriously cannot imagine a company bumbling marketing any worse. That is no dig to WOTC, they really did mess up the marketing.

If I say WoW is a video game, I am not laying a blanket statement on all 4e players. I play 4e from time to time to socialize.

It is nice to see the pf fans defend 4e, really making my point that neither side is worst than the other. I only play 4e because one of my friends wants me in the group. I don't like the game enough to buy any of the books. My view on 4e is really shaped on the core initial release. I play the new updates but I only know them as far as the avenger I play. Wotc changed the game to something I do not like, it still feels like a boardgames when I play even now. More than likely it is because it fails to immerse me like pf. If not for pf I would most likely be playing 1st edition again.

Do any of you that are knowledgeable of both realms have any ideas as too the impact this could have? As a point it would be placed on the Sea of Fallen Stars, which is also shared with Cormyr and Marsember. I am just looking for ideas. I am not sure if I want to include it because a nation like Cheliax could really upset a power balance. Any of you that would take the time for thoughts, advice, ideas, or suggestions would be appreciated! Many thanks! |
